My dear children, did you enjoy the food that your mom cooked for you today ? Mommy makes food by using different ways of cooking, right ? Some times she cooks the food in a frying pan by frying the food items, some times she roasts or bakes the food by using microwave or oven and sometimes she cooks the meal using pressure cooking method in a " PRESSURE COOKER . "
Today I am going to tell you something about pressure cooker . I hope you will like the article and it will help you to understand how it works. The pressure cooker was invented by a french physicist Denis Pepin in the year of 1679.He named it the "digester ". He invented it to reduce the time, used for cooking food . He presented his invention in front of Royal Society and King Charles II . He demonstrated that how the digester cooked the food like meat and fish in lesser time than any other cooking method .It was how the pressure cooker was invented.
A pressure cooker cooks the food quickly because it is a hermetically sealed pot which produces steam heat . The pressure cooker is air tight that's why the steam present in the pot cannot go out . It heats the water to produce very high steam which forces the temperature inside the cooker as high as 266° F (130° C) so high temperature that it cooks the food faster and quicker.
The food is cooked faster so it does not loose minerals and vitamins
vitamins . It needs a less quantity of water for cooking and it can cook every kind of food . It is also good for saving energy because it takes much lesser time than any other cooking device . Isn't that a wonderful
invention.
Safety rules - 1.Always check your equipment before using it.
2. Use enough amount of water and oil.
3. Release the steam when the pot is cooled down .
4. Always clean the pot properly .
5. Do not fill any pressure cooker more than 2/3 full.
6. Moms should not let the children get too close to the pressure cooker.
I hope that you and your mom will find the article informative and helpful .

A long time ago there was a' Gurukul' (Hostel) in which children used to live and study. Among those children there were two kids who were brilliant in studies . They were favorite students of Guruji(The Teacher ).
Both of them were very good friends too . Many years passed by and now teacher decided to take the test of the children . All the children did well in the test specially the two favorites of him . The teacher found both of them equally good and they got equal marks too , he was very happy but he wanted to know that whether both students had put there knowledge into practice.
One day he called one of them and said to him "Dear, you and your friend did equally well in exam I am glad that the two of you are such good students , now I want to know that what do you think of your friend ? " The boy said " Guruji ", I have learned all the subjects by heart but he learnt them by rote, I think he has no brains he is like an" OX". Oh, never mind dear , experience will teach him every thing " said the teacher, "you can go now son".
After meeting the first student he called the second one and asked the same question to him . The boy said " Guruji I have gained my knowledge by understanding it, but my friend has achieved it by rote. He is just like a"CAMEL"."Oh , never mind. Experience will teach him every thing ," teacher repeated the same words and asked him to leave.
Next day their teacher invited both the boys for lunch . The two boys became so happy because it was a big honor for them .The lunch was served and what a shock ! while there was the normal meal was served for Guruji, but for the boys there were only leaves and grass !
The teacher said" you called each other an ox and camel so here is your food , grass for the ox and leaves for the camel".' Please have it'.
